The first festival of means and
workers of
social communication beyond conventional media,
organised to meet the need of ethical companies
to combine culture with responsible economy.
A festival dealing with issues for a civilised society
and addressed through today’s means of communication.
Fabrica Ethica Social Media Festival is an
event of social productions of various kinds, which make
use of means of those media and media events which represent
information channels out of systems of conventional and
mass communication.
This Festival provides the opportunity for presenting
the main users of this parallel and alternative channel,
their activities and production carried out through new
forms of communication and media means.
The Festival visitors will have the chance of getting
in contact with communication messages and styles belonging
to a developing world and to creative approaches yet to
be discovered.
